Editorial Review:
Watergate, Schmatergate, get a load of this: a dead infant, a sleazy president, a manic-depressive first lady, an aide that makes G. Gordon Liddy look like a wuss, murder, adultery, a thousand skeletons peeping from a thousand closets. Exclusive moves so quickly because somebody is always doing something bad. TV journalist Barrie Travis interviews the first lady, a Southern belle still mourning the death of her infant. With a mixture of horror and self-interest, Travis perceives the slightest hint that the first infant didn't merely die, but was murdered. But by who, and why? As you can imagine, that's when it gets messy. The book might capsize under the sheer weight of seamy scandals and sleazy characters were it not for the almost-supernaturally spunky Travis and her somewhat reluctant love-object, craggy ex-Marine Gray Bondurant. Bondurant left the White House under a cloud. Was he the first lady's lover? Travis and Bondurant come together to solve the mystery, of course. If you read fast, you might just keep up.

Rating:  - Great seller
The book was in great condition and was offered at a very good price. The seller shipped it right away, and I got it in a very short period of time. Thank for making this a great experience!
Rating:  - Grew on me
**Spoliers* This was my first book by this author. Though I wasn't over impressed, the author finally won me over in the epilogue of this novel. There was a lot in this book that made no sense. There was a lot of cringe worthy dialogue as well. And yet for the most part I was mildly entertained, at no point did I truely come to care for Barrie and Gray. The woman was a lousy reporter, barnone. And the whole time I was wondering who was taking care of Gray's horses while he was running around ... Read More
Rating:  - Great surprise ending to a action packed story
Barrie Travis is a small potatoes reporter looking for a story that'll catapult her into the big leagues. When she hooks up with the First Lady after the SIDS death of her son, she slowly uncovers a theory about his death which may even lead to murder, and soon finds she's a target of those sinister machinations. With the help of former White House aide Gray Boudrant, who left under a cloud of suspicion that he was having an affair with the First Lady (and might have fathered her child), Barrie slowly ...

Rating: - Pretty good
Sandra Brown's book exclusive is a decently written book, it wasn't very long, because it was the type of novel for long airplane flights and short drives, it was the type of book that is an alternative to watching reality T.V and saturday morning cartoons. I held no great expectations and it delivered none. The main female character is an impulsive woman who still seeks solcae from her early traumatic life, she embarrasses herself through out the book with her wrong hunches and mediocre ideas. She badgered ... Read More
Rating: - Great Fun!
First, let me say that some of the other reviewers are correct in that this is not a terribly deep story. But if you're looking for such a story, Sandra Brown is probably not the author for you. Nonetheless, I would STRONGLY recommend this book if you're looking for a fun, fast-paced mystery with an unconventional, but sweet relationship developing alongside the mystery.
Exclusive is definetly a page turner...I couldn't put it down! Far-fetched, yes, but also great fun, particulary if you're looking ... Read More
